I have a cottons fmic which id have to say is the biggest out there (quick plug for jack)and i still have room between the fmic and the a/c condenser for my b&m trans cooler. it can be done.
i made brackets to mount it but you can even buy the strap kits they make for trans coolers and mount it to your a/c condenser if you wanted.

I just put a PTE FMIC on and with the AC condensor with the B/M trans cooler (there biggest race cooler) It was not even close to fitting between the condensor and the IC even with the IC's standoffs. Might have figured out a way to mount it over behind the Passenger headlight but already had alchy pump there. I finally decided to mount it under the car next to the tranny on the drivers side. I used spacers to stand it off the floor a little and allow air to pass over the top and bottom of it. Makes for a clean install and I would think works reall good. GL

Thumbs up Here is how we do it...

I have the big PTE front mount IC. It is about 6 years old and was the largest at the time. I do not remember what model it is but it takes up every bit of the grill area. The tranny cooler is mounted to the bumper bolts in front with strap T-6061 Aluminum 3/16ths strap and the bacl is made with L bracketts that bolt into the radiator shelf support also T-6061 3/16ths Strap aluminum. All lines are #6 JIC Teflon stainless steel braided hose.

Only had one bad occassion and that was when I hit a rabbit one time. Broke the cooler off. Rabbit got the worse of it tho, dust, all that was left. Anyway, here is my WE4 install.

Thank god I could not open the pics. Might have been tramatized seeing tranny cooler with a rabbits foot hanging on to it. Poor Bugs

Well I am fixing to get an F-body radiator and have to figure somewhere to mount an oil cooler. Will probably try to stick it in that area somewhere.

Hey, maybe they were sensored for graphic violence because of that poor rabbit.

And they all came up. It must be your settings on your pc or your ISP. Are you logged in when you are doing this? I am curious as to what is going on. You should be able to view. Try entering site off internet explorer 6 and log in with nothing else open. It should not be this hard. We are missing something. Let me know.
Sometimes Isp's have a blocker built into them so ck that also.

I can view them at work and my home computer. It is more than likely in your own isp settings as Bruce mentioned.

The problem with seeing the pics aren't with ISP or on our end...it comes up as a vbulletin message generated by the forum itself. See a pic of the error we get at the link below:
